Spectacular light show at school fair

Ahuroa’s school fair has dropped fireworks this year in favour of a spectacular laser light show, which organisers promise is the best in New Zealand and the US.

Organisers say the fireworks have been ditched to be considerate to neighbouring animals.

Meanwhile, the 2019 Fair Feast promises non-stop fun and culinary delights.  

There will be lamb on the spit, sausage sizzles, a variety of games, face painting and cake sales.

Spokesperson Gayathri Rajeswaran says for the first time the fair will be a zero-waste event.

“We’re doing our bit for the environment. There’s No Planet B.”

The fair takes place in the school grounds on Saturday, April 6, from 4.30pm.
